USA. HEALing Communities Study Communication Campaign Toolkits

The HEALing Communities Study (HCS) has developed a series of ready-to-use communication campaigns designed to increase awareness about substance use disorders and effective response strategies to help strengthen local prevention, treatment, recovery, and overdose prevention efforts. 

These free toolkits make it easy for you to share critical information in your community through social media, radio, print materials, and more. Whether you’re part of a community coalition, local agency, business, school, university, nonprofit, or faith-based organization, you can use these resources to share information about evidence-based solutions to prevent and reduce opioid overdose deaths and address addiction-related stigma in communities. 

Campaign Focus Areas

The toolkits cover the following topics:

  • Naloxone education
  • Fentanyl facts and risks
  • Medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) effectiveness 
  • Anti-stigma messages and awareness
